Hi, I'm capturing data from a proprietary database to a flat file and I want to create tables and insert rows of data into those tables. From what I've read as long as the number of columns matches the number of elements in a row I should be able to do wholesale inserts into the oracle database. I just need direction on how best to approach this. I was thinking of using a sql statement of the order:
@row = $sth->dump_results(80, "\n", ':',\*CONTENT); foreach $x (@row){ $sql = "insert into $i values($x); $sth = $dbh2->prepare($sql); $sth->execute or die "Can't execute SQL statement: ", $sth->errstr(), "\n"; I know this won't work but am I moving in the right direction? Should I be using fetchrow_arrayref() to reference the rows? How would I use this in a sql statement? Perhaps I'm moving down a cul de sac, so any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.
